Pro player Yvette Young says the best tip for buying a guitar "You have to try it. You have to feel it. You have to see how it makes you feel. Spend time with it and really see if it inspires music out of you. I've played guitars that look cool and have the hype, but they just feel kind of uninspired to me."
